The Sheriff's Office says Rivera went to 16 different Target stores in the area and bought 69 external hard drives. Bentulan then used receipts to return them, only the hard drives were later found to be full of Play-Doh.

"This is certainly a creative twist on a fraudulent return," Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said. "But you can be sure that when we arrest these suspects, the handcuffs we use won't be made out of Play-Doh"

Police say the suspects took the hard drives and emptied out the contents then filled the shells with Play-Doh and returned them.

Police say the total value of the stolen merchandise is $6,159.

They are being charged with organized scheme to defraud and conspiracy to commit organized scheme to defraud, according to police.
